Gems Masked in the Ordinary

Posted by Erin Mansfield

A soft mixture, sweet and reminiscent of spring
The aroma carries the mind in tranquil thoughts
A gentle stir, both potent and yet vague
Layers of pure delight blossom in every color
Gratifying the heart in waves of the serene

The babble of a brook becomes a roaring river
Feathery seeds float along like ethereal wisps
Bare feet in grasses, is as to dancing on clouds
A successful find becomes a quest worthy of song
And everyone present forms everlasting bonds

Such dreams evoked when one opens their heart
To beauty carefully hidden like precious gems
Masked behind folds of the ordinary scraps
Where Angels and heirs do find their share
Lavish beyond the considerations of this land
